William Herbert and his wife Goldie are listed in the Rochester city directories through 1942. Starting in 1943, he appears alone. She does not appear in the Mt Hope Cemetery Records online, but there is a William Herbert in there, buried 30 January 1958, aged 58, from coronary occlusion, and living on Reynolds St. When the city directories are checked, William S Herbert has a wife Hannah.

William's obit reads that he is survived by his wife Hannah and two stepsons, Ross and Bernard Nevel. When Hannah dies on 14 June 1970, her obit reads that she is survived by her sons Ross and Bernard Nevel, and hat she was buried in Williamsport PA.

But Goldie drops out of the city directories starting in 1943. There's no mention of her in the 1942-1946 inclusive state death indexes. Possibly she and William were divorced.
